Ellisons is an outstanding regional firm with highly competent and skilled partners and associates in the corporate sphere. The breadth and depth of expertise and experience is excellent. I have always been impressed by the supportiveness, engagement and availability of their client-facing staff.

If unique means easy to get along with, readily available to talk to, without hiding behind emails, then Ellisons are unique. My experience with other law firms is limited, but they are streets ahead. Their innovation would be they respond to contact quickly, which should not be an innovation, but is in the legal world. All the staff have been excellent communicators.

I found the practice as a whole to provide good quality advice in a methodical manner. The response to queries have been very good and quick. The practice, in my opinion, puts its clients first, which is very thoughtful.

They are very very capable – very professional whilst maintaining a very friendly approach. I have also found with the service given the delivery is perfect and the costs fair.

The firm is extremely efficient and commercially minded. It takes consideration of what its client is trying to achieve and will always provide advice as to how set goals can be met.
